Probelmatic Brakes

[Januss]

Hey guys,

Been having problems with my back brakes.

Here are the symtoms:

. Brakes produce clunking noises every tire revolution when i press on halfway on the brakes

. Brakes produce sliding metal noises whn i press a quarter way through

. Brakes produce ringing noise when i im not pressing on them while driving

Finding the problem quite odd as the brakes pads are new. They were changed just before i bought the vehicle.

What could it be? Something loose that i could possibly tighten myself? (reassembly?)

Help! Its really annoying.

Thankksss

Clunking is usually a loose caliper

Thats normal for pad on disc. If its excessive the pads might not be worn in properly or could be be the wrong size (thickness etc)/cheapies altogether.

Caliper piston could be getting jammed and not retracting off the hub properly, see if you can get rid of the noise first before trying to rectify this

All those noises pretty much sound like wear indicator sounds. Check that they have actually been fitted correctly and that the wear indicator isnt rubbing on the rotor.
